When instantiating Foo with an int the special constructor (and later
destructor) will be used. Notice however that I think it is a bad idea
to specialise the destructor if it can be avoided. It is better to just
set t to 0 in Foo<int>'s constructor and not specialise the destructor.

The problem is that I can not use templated class I can have only
templated constructor
class MyClass
{
template <typename TMyClass(T){ /*Use T as argument for
templates*/}
~MyClass(){ /*Do default action or nothing for particular T used in
the ctor*/}
};
The reason why I can not use template class is that I need to store
them in a Loki::Typelist.
What I'm thinking now is to rely on the compiler optimisation: I set a
non static const in the ctor and I check it in the destructor. This
means that the check is not made at compile time if the compiler does
not optimize the code.
Thanks
